Once part of an old mill dating back to 1800, now converted into four cottages with spectacular lake views, you will find Two Lake View in Coniston, overlooking Coniston Water in the Lake District. Perfect for a family holiday to the lakes, for some fresh air and walking, this property will be an ideal base for all of your adventures. The entrance porch is where you'll be kicking off those muddy boots and hanging up the waterproofs after a great day out in the open, before heading into the kitchen/diner to flick the kettle on. Get a round of brews going for everyone while you are warmed by the underfloor heating as well as the woodburning stove that sits in the beautiful feature stone fireplace. You can gather in the sitting room, which boasts beautiful views towards Coniston Water, and decide on a program on the TV with Freeview, or perhaps choose a favourite film to play on the DVD player, for a relaxing afternoon. When it's time to head to bed, move upstairs to discover the three lovely bedrooms, a master king-size with a superb lake view, a second king-size room and a single room, all finished beautifully in earthy neutral hues of grey, cream and green. Serving the bedrooms is a family bathroom hosting a bath with hand-held shower, basin and WC, as well as a shower room with shower, basin and WC. To the outside you can enjoy a summer evening on the patio using the outdoor furniture as you watch the last of the sun fall on the lake. If you don't feel like cooking in the evening, you can wander over to the local pub nearby and enjoy some delicious classic dishes, or head into the centre of Coniston where you'll find a bistro restaurant and a fish and chip shop, for whichever mood you're in. For a fun activity, hire a boat from Coniston Boating Centre, where you can choose from motor boats, canoes, kayaks or even paddleboards to see the beautiful surroundings from the water. With lovely footpaths and cycle routes around Coniston Water, you are further spoilt for choice of things to do, not mentioning the abundance of activities available in the entire Lake District. Two Lake View is a delightful property to spend your lakeside retreat at in this beautiful part of the world.
Coniston is a village at the head of Coniston Water, and is a pretty village in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria. One of the villages most notable features is The Old Man of Coniston - one of the fells in the Furness Fells - which is popular for walkers and climbers. Many locations in Coniston were the basis for the book by Arthur Ransome 'Swallows and Amazons', with the Monk Coniston estate owned by a literary great Beatrix Potter, which she gave to the National Trust on her death bed.
